👥 Character Adaptations & Evolution

Sephiroth

Deviations & Psychological Standing: No longer operating merely as a generic Jenova puppet or a maddened SOLDIER icon, Sephiroth is driven by an all-consuming, possessive, and obsessive romantic love for Bianca. The "Basement Sacrament" provides him with a permanent human anchor, meaning his descent into madness is deeply personal rather than purely external. The Filum Aeternum transmits Bianca’s horrific memories of Project N directly into his mind, transforming his canonical hatred of Shinra into a focused, vengeful crusade. He behaves as a protective warden, a ruthless executioner, and eventually, a cosmic architect willing to sacrifice entire timelines to ensure his Queen is made whole.

Physical & Attire Modifications: Retains his imposing SOLDIER stature but carries an aura laced with Eldritch pressure. His movements are synchronized with the telepathic frequencies of the hive-mind. During the journey to the Northern Crater, his practical attire is often stained with the blood of Shinra operatives (such as Mira Shroud) used to nourish Bianca. He wields the Masamune not just as a weapon of war, but as a surgical tool to carve pathways through reality.

Bianca Moore (Subject N-01)

Deviations & Psychological Standing: Transitioning from a tragic victim of Asmodeus and Shinra's brutal vivisections to the ruthless Matriarch of Rebirth, Bianca’s internal landscape is defined by profound trauma turning into cold predation. Eighteen months of torment under Project Nephilim complete her fall from Grace, turning her golden eyes a glowing, hive-linked purple. She shifts from a suffering captive to Sephiroth’s independent equal, eventually embracing her dark role and viewing her manipulative, performative motherhood toward the Remnants as her "Greatest Sin" after she is put together again by Sephiroth at the Edge of Creation

Physical & Attire Modifications: Her celestial/infernal biology undergoes severe physical shifts due to forced infusions of S-cells and Jenova biomass. She possesses a dual nature that requires blood, semen, or spiritual energy to stabilize. Her attire shifts from the tattered, blood-soaked remnants of her containment garments to a localized manifestation of dark majesty, eventually achieving the terrifying, reality-warping vestments.

SC-X (Akihiro Hiroki)

Deviations & Psychological Standing: A Sephiroth clone with a tragic Wutai past who serves as Sephiroth’s primary, essential physical vessel to protect and reclaim Bianca on the physical plane. While he acts as a hollowed-out puppet with zero regard from Sephiroth for his original human identity, Akihiro’s latent, deep-seated Wutai protective instincts manifest uniquely through the conditioning, expressing an instinctual, hardwired need to guard and protect Bianca from harm during their travels.

Physical & Attire Modifications: A physical duplicate of Sephiroth's form wearing the iconic black cape of the clones, acting as a walking bridge for Sephiroth's conscious manifestation. His body bears the physical brunt of the harsh continental trek, navigating the terrain on a stolen chocobo and serving as the physical hands that use a bone needle to stitch Bianca's vivisection wounds and intercept threats along their path.

Mira Shroud

Deviations & Psychological Standing: An elite Turk operative whose narrative purpose is defined by cold efficiency and tragic expendability. Tasked with the tracking and retrieval of Subject N-01 (Bianca), her tactical precision ultimately places her directly in the path of a completely unleashed Sephiroth. She possesses no grand multiversal awareness, operating purely as a dedicated Shinra professional who is ruthlessly stripped of her agency to serve a higher, darker biological purpose.

Physical & Attire Modifications: Wears the standard, sharp blue-black tailored suit of the Turks, embodying Shinra's corporate authority. This crisp, clinical presentation is violently shattered during her encounter with Sephiroth, who slaughters her with efficiency. Her high-frequency life force and blood are completely siphoned and drained to be fed to a comatose Bianca, turning Mira's own physical body into the essential biological stabilization fuel required to keep the failing Nephilim physiology alive.

Cloud Strife

Deviations & Psychological Standing: Cloud’s traditional role as the definitive hero of Gaia is thoroughly complicated and compromised by Bianca's presence. He remains an person struggling with identity, but his psyche is continuously invaded by Bianca's nightmare and succubus powers. His actions at the Northern Crater—where he kills Bianca to break a psychological loop where she placed him in—inadvertently trigger the catastrophic multiversal Soul-Fracture, burdening him with the unwitting responsibility of launching Sephiroth's cosmic harvest.

Zack Fair

Deviations & Psychological Standing: He acts as a tragic moral anchor with Aerith Gainsborough, desperately attempting to pull Bianca back from the edge of the encroaching darkness before her complete psychological break and transformation into the Dark Queen through his time in the Lifstream.

Kadaj, Loz, & Yazoo (The Remnants)

Deviations & Psychological Standing: Rather than acting merely as physical manifestations of Sephiroth's will seeking Jenova, the Remnants are deeply tragic victims of a "Hollow Motherhood." They are telepathically manipulated by a reflection of Bianca (the Hollow Matriarch) during the Geostigma plague. They view her as a genuine surrogate mother, entirely unaware that her performative warmth and maternal comfort are psychological weapons designed to keep their cells stable until Sephiroth can harvest them as raw biological fuel for his resurrection.

Professor Hojo & Diana Ravenscroft

Deviations & Psychological Standing: Operating with absolute corporate autonomy, Hojo and his cold, obsessed protégé Diana view Bianca purely as an extraordinary biological asset and a canvas for cruel experimentation. Their dynamic with her is one of absolute, unadulterated antagonism. By subjecting her to live vivisection and a horrifying, forced breeding program using Sephiroth's SOLDIER genetic material, they act as the primary catalysts that turn a shattered celestial entity into a ruthless, vengeful goddess.

Altered Core Dynamics:

Sephiroth & Bianca: A relationship of absolute, inescapable, and obsessive possession. They operate as a singular "Dark Dyad" of pure will: two halves of a single cosmic soul bound by a physical and spiritual ribbon of fate. Sephiroth provides the raw physical power and devastating military strategy, while Bianca provides the reality-warping magic, nightmare manipulation, and the foundational maternal architecture for their future universal lineage.

Sephiroth & SC-X (Akihiro): Master and Puppet. Sephiroth overrides and uses Akihiro’s cloned body with absolute authority and zero regard for the vessel's original identity. However, this dynamic is uniquely warped by Akihiro’s residual Wutai instincts, causing the vessel to display a deep, underlying protective drive over Bianca that runs parallel to Sephiroth's own dark possessiveness.

Bianca & The Remnants: A chilling, purely predatory dynamic. Bianca mimics the profound maternal love and validation the Remnants desperately crave, weaponizing their grief to preserve their genetic viability. This performative trauma bond serves as a biological holding pattern, ensuring they remain perfect sacrificial vessels for Sephiroth’s eventual return.

Genesis & The Dark Dyad: Genesis Rhapsodos acts as the "Spare Verse" in this tragic epic. His bond with Sephiroth and Bianca is rooted in a lingering, melancholic loyalty. Existing in stasis beneath Midgar as an ancient relic, he accepts the total destruction of Gaia as the necessary, aesthetic cost of their shared, cosmic evolution, waiting to recite the final verses of LOVELESS to a dying world.

Bianca & Lucrecia Crescent: Driven by an intense, possessive jealousy, Bianca denies Lucrecia the mercy of a natural death or peaceful isolation. Viewing her as an maternal template, Bianca traps Lucrecia in a Mako-stasis loop for a thousand years, acting as a silent, suffering archivist until every drop of genetic and spiritual data can be siphoned to completely replace her.

🗺️ World-building & Environment

Elyrion: The city between dimensions housing the Pathway of Reality and its multiversal mirrors; following a catastrophic displacement from the Prime Universe, Bianca falls through a structural rift within this ethereal sanctuary, plunging directly into Gaia.

Gaia: Shinra Manor Basement: The location of the Seven-Day Sacrament Bond, physically locking the Filum Aeternum between Sephiroth and Bianca.

The Divergent Trials (Simultaneous Crucial Phases)

Project Nephilim & The Shared Torture: A harrowing 18-month period of live vivisection and forced breeding programs under Hojo and Diana Ravenscroft. Concurrently, Sephiroth / Jenova (manifesting through the Jenova hive-mind) inflicts his own severe psychological torture and grooming inside the dreamscape, using gaslighting tactics to break her mind and reshape her into his Dark Queen.

The Mako Cocoon: Upon escaping the labs, Bianca is brought to the Northern Crater and placed directly into a crystalline Mako cocoon alongside Sephiroth's true physical body to stabilize her failing Nephilim physiology.

The Northern Crater: The Cabin on the Crater: While resting in the cocoon, Bianca's reality magic manifests a physical sanctuary on the Crater's rim—the Cabin on the Crater—where she rules as the Angel of Vengeance.

The Final Battle & Death: Bianca uses her nightmare and succubus powers to trap Cloud Strife in a torturous psychological loop, forcing him to experience killing Aerith Gainsborough with his own hands over and over again. Once Cloud finally breaks free from the horror of the illusion, he turns his blade on Bianca and kills her at the Northern Crater, inadvertently triggering a catastrophic cosmic breakdown.

The Cosmic Soul-Fracture (Over 100 Shards): Jenova's parasitic drive forces a massive disruption upon Bianca's death, shattering her celestial/infernal soul into more than 100 distinct filaments and reflections across parallel timelines.

The Post-Advent Multivalen Chronology & The Remake Anomaly (just some of the worlds)

Note: A future "Post-Remake" Sephiroth who has already experienced the Remake timelines acts as an outside intruder, actively invading these worlds to strip the threads of fate away from other versions of himself. Sephiroth-Prime has already experienced all of his events alone and without his Bianca.

The Remake Timeline Anomaly: Sephiroth intervenes in the past to destroy the Whispers of Fate, unbinding history. He manipulates global wars, merges fragmented realities within the Lifestream, and toys with Cloud at the Edge of Creation and leaves space-time permanently fractured.

The Advent Children Timeline: The future Sephiroth tracks the Hollow Matriarch reflection. He observes her predatory mimicry of motherhood toward the Remnants (Kadaj, Loz, Yazoo) with satisfaction, recognizing that she has discarded human mercy to become his ruthless equal, before harvesting her form.

The Dirge of Cerberus Timeline: Navigating the final corporate remnants, the awakening of Omega, and securing the Deepground Apex via Weiss and Nero's darkness to extract the localized soul-filaments.

The Cosmic Harvest (Heartless Angel): Moving as an Angel of Death across the timelines, Sephiroth uses Heartless Angel to systematically slaughter the local reflections of Bianca, pulling over 100 strands of the Filum Aeternum into his sole possession and leaving those realities permanently deprived of their Goddess.

The Edge of Creation: The final destination where Sephiroth stitches all 100+ harvested soul-filaments back together using Jenova biomass as the adhesive, resurrecting Bianca as his absolute, independent equal.

The Atmospheric Setting The sensory profile of the Final Fantasy VII Arc is defined by a stark contrast between sterile, corporate dystopia and terrifying, reality-warping sanctuaries. The journey begins in the damp, claustrophobic stone underbelly of Shinra Manor and transitions into the horrific operating theaters of Midgar, characterized by the smell of ozone, burning Mako, and celestial blood.

Once the narrative shifts to the Northern Crater, the atmosphere becomes deeply ethereal and anomalous. Here sits the "Cabin on the Crater": a manifested domestic haven cutting through the howling polar winds. Inside this localized pocket reality, the laws of physics are suspended, Mako toxicity is completely nullified, and the environment mimics a quiet, safe isolation where Bianca and Sephiroth can retreat from the chaos of the world below, even as a global apocalypse looms outside.

Governing Mechanics & Lore Rules

The Filum Aeternum (The Red Ribbon of Fate): A tangible, spiritual, and inescapable biological bond that links Sephiroth and Bianca across all space and time. This thread transmits physical pain, subconscious dreams, somatic sensations, and emotions between the two. Rather than acting as a gentle guide, it functions as an existential noose, dragging their fates together regardless of the destruction it causes to their surroundings. This is the manifestation of their soul-split.

Soul-Fracture & Vibrational Recognition: Upon the violent death of a cosmic entity of Bianca’s magnitude, her soul cannot be processed or absorbed by Gaia's Lifestream, as like the Gi Tribe, Bianca is an outsider to the Planet. Instead, of her resurrection with Ashen Rebirth which has her body dissolve and reform in a cocoon over months like a butterfly, it undergoes a "Soul-Fracture," shattering into distinct "Reflections" or filaments across parallel timelines and alternate universes. Despite changes in physical appearance or personalities across these shards, souls bound by the Filum Aeternum can instantly recognize each other's unique "vibrational frequency," allowing Sephiroth to track and harvest them over a billion-year pilgrimage.

Jenova's Conceptual Filter: A parasitic psychological defense mechanism employed by the alien calamity. Before the Nibelheim Incident, the filter intentionally blurred Sephiroth and Bianca's cognitive recognition of each other's physical faces, keeping them isolated and confused until proximity forced the Red String to violently snap back into clear focus within the Manor's basement.

Societal Factions & Group Dynamics

The Shinra Electric Power Company (Science Division Focus): Led ostensibly by Rufus Shinra for global dominance, the true power within this arc rests with Professor Hojo and Diana Ravenscroft. Operating with complete disregard for human or celestial ethics, this corporate faction treats ancient gods as mere livestock, utilizing advanced vivisection, S-cell infusions, and artificial breeding programs to exploit cosmic DNA for corporate immortality and military dominance.

The Dark Dyad & The Hive-Mind: Consisting strictly of Sephiroth and Bianca Moore operating as a unified, singular force of cosmic will. Beneath them sits the network of Sephiroth Clones, including SC-X (Akihiro Hiroki), who serve as completely hollowed-out physical vessels. This hive-mind moves with eerie, synchronized precision across Gaia to protect Bianca and facilitate the ultimate Reunion driven by Reunion Theory.

The Deepground Tsviets: An underground military branch led by Weiss the Immaculate and Nero the Sable. They view the Active Sovereigns (Sephiroth and Bianca) as the ultimate evolutionary lifeforms. Nero’s control over the abyss is a direct, localized shadow of the catastrophic "Umbra Ascension" that Bianca eventually achieves, making Deepground an eager vanguard for the planet's dark transformation.

The WRO & Planetary Defenders: A fragile alliance between Reeve Tuesti’s World Regenesis Organization and the remnants of AVALANCHE. Reeve carries the profound, silent guilt of having personally triggered Bianca's initial release from the Shinra labs, standing as the lone mortal who recognizes that the terrifying fallen angel threatening to dismantle their universe was originally a tormented victim of his own company's unbridled arrogance.
